>>16400203Is this an accurate summary of the book?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consilience_(book)What I got from the Wikipedia summary of it was the following:
>Soientists take ideas from each other>They make up even bigger claims that somehow benefit soience as a whole>In some way or another this leads to bigger claims becoming part of larger theories that group things together>Also, everything is a particular manifestation of a more common, fundamental theme>Therefore soience expands the more soientists leech off each other.
